[Wikitech-l] Bugello updates, rolling out next week

[Arthur Richards]

To accommodate the mobile web team's migration from Mingle to Trello, I've
made some enhancements to Bugello [1] to bring it more in line with the
features we had added to Bingle. New features include:
* Support for prefixing bug cards in Trello with [Bug $bug_num], which
helps with...
* Improved dupe detection
* Adding bug descriptions to Trello card
* Adding bug comments from BZ to new Trello cards
* Posting a link back to BZ to the Trello card

I also did some refactoring and made some minor bug fixes (including one
that I know was plaguing the Flow team).

I will be rolling this out for the mobile web team on Monday. Any other
current users of Bugello should contact me if interested in updating to get
these features - there are some config changes that you'll need to make and
a couple of gotchas to look out for, and I'd be happy to walk you through
it.

Thanks and happy Friday!

Bingle

Re: [Wikitech-l] Fwd: Welcome Danny Horn!

[Howie Fung]

We're swapping the PM staffing around a bit.  Kenan Wang (mobile PM) will
be leaving WMF in a few weeks, so Maryana will be moving to mobile (with
help from Dan Garry), and DannyH will be taking Flow.

Relatedly - take a look at Bryan Davis's

[Wikitech-l] Fwd: Welcome Danny Horn!

[Howie Fung]

Everyone,

I am pleased to announce that Danny Horn is joining the Product Development
team as Product Manager. His first day was Monday April 21.

Some of you may know Danny from his work at Wikia.  Prior to joining WMF,
Danny was a Product Manager at Wikia for six years. At Wikia, Danny was
focused on increasing user contributions and collaboration. His projects
included a Wiki Create wizard, a new Activity Feed, a Chat feature and the
Message Wall (a threaded discussion system, Wikia's version of Flow).  He's
familiar with MediaWiki and Wikiculture, and was one of the founders of Muppet
Wiki , a collaborative encyclopedia about the
Muppets and Jim Henson.

Danny has a BA in English Literature from Brown University and an MS in
Sexuality Education from the University of Pennsylvania. In addition to his
work on Muppet Wiki, he also has a daily blog, Dark Shadows Every
Day,
about the 1960s vampire soap opera.

Please join me in welcoming Danny!

Howie
